Lei Jian immediately realized that this section of the tunnel was very dangerous, and he ordered Feng Guang: "You hurry up and go back and tell Lao Sun to tell him to get the stretcher out, and then bring two of the only three explosive bags left in the tunnel, as fast as possible." ”

He said to the warrior who was holding him: "Hurry up and retreat, I can't say that this tunnel will collapse soon." ”

Feng Guang didn't know where the water came from, but Lei Jian was so important to the matter of the water, and he had to take the stretcher and two explosives bags, so frightened that he quickly returned to the place where the seriously injured in the pit were concentrated, rushed to the old grandson stretcher, and said in a nervous tone: "Old Sun, Captain Lei, please give up the stretcher, you have to send it over now, hurry up, it's too late." ”

At this time, Wang Xiaoliang and Wang Ziming, who had already woken up, heard that Feng Guang wanted a stretcher, and the two got up from the ground and asked quickly: "Feng Guang, what does Regiment Leader Lei want to stretch for?" What the hell is going on? ”

"The section of the tunnel that collapsed was rapidly bubbling water from the mud pile into the tunnel, and Regiment Commander Lei ordered me to run over to get a stretcher and two explosives bags, I guess Regiment Commander Lei may have to detonate the tunnel again to block the ...... that came out."

Wang Ziming didn't wait for Feng Guang to finish speaking, and rushed out shouting "nonsense".

Zhang Guanghua and Chun Tao heard that Lei Jian dragged his seriously injured and weak body, and ran to the most dangerous section of the tunnel, and the two quickly followed Wang Ziming and rushed over.

Wang Xiaoliang followed closely behind, shouting as he ran: "Commander Lei, withdraw quickly, the section of the tunnel that collapsed is dangerous." ”

Several people rushed to Lei Jian's side one after another, and Wang Ziming asked sternly in a muddy tone: "Captain Lei, what are you going to do?" Do you know that the tunnel that can accommodate us people is now less than 30 meters, if we continue to use the explosion of the tunnel to block the water coming out, once it causes a large-scale landslide, then we are likely to block all of them in the tunnel, and then there is only one way, that is, to be suffocated alive. ”

Wang Xiaoliang rushed over and squeezed away the soldiers surrounding Lei Jian, grabbed Lei Jian and said: "Commander Lei, you can't detonate the pit anymore, Comrade Wang Ziming is right, the pit where we can be invisible is getting smaller and smaller, and once it is blocked in the pit , no one will survive." ”

Lei Jian did not shake his will violently because of Wang Ziming and Wang Xiaoliang's words, in order to reassure everyone, he asked Wang Ziming: "Comrade Ziming, do you know very well about the hidden tunnels we are hiding?" Let me tell you, when you have not been rescued, I will send Zhang Ping, director of the Electrical Investigation Department of my only regiment, to lead two operators to look for other entrances and exits and semi-hidden tunnels in the tunnel. ”

He shouted as he spoke, "Is Director Zhang Ping here?" ”

"Report to Captain Lei, Zhang Ping is not far from you every time, I am here, please instruct."

"You give the sketch I drew to Comrade Ziming, and he will see it clearly at a glance." Lei Jian said and shouted again: "Feng Guang, have you taken the ladder and the explosives bag?" ”

"Report to Regiment Leader Lei, I have already taken it all, and I can ...... it at any time."

Lei Jian waited for Wang Ziming to finish reading the tunnel sketch, stared at the bright eyes and asked, "Comrade Ziming, what do you say when you see the tunnel sketch I added?" Is there any truth in your argument that I used the detonation tunnel to blow up and block the water poured down from the ground? ”

Without waiting for Wang Ziming to answer, he ordered Zhang Ping: "Director Zhang, I order you to lead the seriously wounded, medical personnel and guard platoon soldiers in the tunnel who did not participate in the detonation of the tunnel, immediately withdraw into the newly discovered section of the tunnel, and then deploy the next step after I pass." ”

Everyone around Lei Jian admired Lei Jian's carefulness, precautionary wisdom and decisive command methods from the bottom of their hearts, and even Wang Ziming felt that Lei Jian, the regiment commander who looked like a big baby, was a very remarkable hero.

Feng Guang heard Lei Jian's order, he squeezed to Lei Jian's side and immediately reported: "Report to Commander Lei, please believe me Feng Guang, I will lead two soldiers to detonate the explosive package at the specified time according to your deployment, and withdraw to you safely." ”

Lei Jian nodded with satisfaction and said: "I believe you, the others will be transferred to the new tunnel immediately, and no one who has not received the task here should stay, and transfer immediately." ”

Zhang Guanghua and Chun Tao squeezed to Lei Jian's side, and the two of them were about to leave after holding Lei Jian, Lei Jian whispered: "You two move immediately, I'll leave here when they arrange the explosives, don't worry, with Feng Guang and the two fighters here, I won't be in any danger." ”

"Commander Lei, Platoon Commander Feng just said very clearly, he will definitely complete the detonation task according to your deployment, do you only believe in yourself, and no one believes in it? I don't think you're doing that ....... ”

"Zhang Guanghua, your mouth is like a small knife, it doesn't hurt your muscles and bones if you cut it, but it makes people feel uncomfortable from the heart, okay, listen to you, wait for Feng Guang and them to place the explosives bag, let's withdraw it, okay?"

"I can't help it." Zhang Guanghua shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Feng Guang followed Lei Jian's method, holding two explosive bags on the stretcher and leaning against the top of the tunnel, everything was ready, Feng Guang asked Lei Jian for instructions: "Commander Lei, you are very seriously injured now, and your body has not recovered, I ask you to withdraw first, and when you reach a safe place, I will immediately light the fuse, and I will be able to catch you soon, and there will be no danger, do you think this is good?" ”

Lei Jian said to Zhang Guanghua and Chun Tao with satisfaction: "Let's go, I will hand over the glorious task of lighting the fuse to Feng Guang and them, I feel at ease." ”

With a dull explosion, the roar of 'rumbling' came from the tunnel, if it weren't for Lei Jian asking Feng Guang to set aside some more fuses, this could delay the detonation and leave time for the transferred comrades to retreat quickly, otherwise, these dozens of people were crowded in the tunnel of more than 30 meters, and I don't know what would happen.

All of the people who were hidden in the pit moved to a newly discovered tunnel, which was not about forty meters long, and was shorter than the one they had just entered, but also narrower.

Lei Jian is the person who is most familiar with the entire underground tunnel at this time, he no longer asks Wang Ziming about the path in the tunnel, he can decisively put forward disposal opinions according to the new situation that has arisen, and he will prepare for everything that may happen in advance.

He saw that everyone was squatting in the narrow tunnel, and they were extremely tired, especially Wang Xiaoliang and Wang Ziming, who were blocked in the narrow space of the tunnel, always felt a pain in their chests, and felt dizzy after a little exertion.

During the period when the soldiers of the guard platoon searched for and rescued the blocked comrades, they risked their lives and used their hands and feet to compete with death.

Wang Xiaoliang said with tears in his eyes and sadness: "Commander Lei, in order to reduce the consumption of air in the narrow space, the three soldiers of Xiao Liao actually lay in the muddy water, and when it was very difficult to breathe, they grabbed the muddy water and covered their mouths and noses, in order for me and Comrade Wang Ziming to survive, without our knowledge, we resolutely gave up our lives and left, I can't help the three soldiers who saved me and Wang Ziming, I, Wang Xiaoliang, feel like being stabbed by a knife, dripping blood, Captain Lei, woo woo woo ........ ”

Lei Jianqiang held back his tears, looked at everyone crowded in the narrow pit and said: "Comrades, I understand your feelings very well, since I joined the Eighth Route Army, I saw my comrades-in-arms and brothers fighting with the enemy on the battlefield to kill the enemy one by one until the last breath of heroic sacrifice, why is my heart not dripping blood?"

But I can only quote the words of the supreme commander of the Eighth Route Army, 'If you want to struggle, there will be sacrifice', and we are now using our flesh and blood to defend the dignity of the country, the safety of the people's lives, and the rich resources of the land of China.

We watched the soldiers around us leave us in a bloody battle in order to protect their families and defend the country, they walked gloriously, and we, the soldiers who are still alive and continue to fight against the devils, are great, but no one will know which day and at what time, on the battlefield of killing the enemy, on the hidden front, for the country, for the family, for the relatives will lose our lives. ”

When Lei Jian said this, he suddenly raised his voice and continued in a firm tone: "Comrades, please firmly believe that in five years at most, we will be able to defeat the little devils, so that these little devils who trample on the short legs of other countries, holding plaster flags and guns, kneel on the ground and surrender to us, this day will come soon, please believe in yourself, believe in our nation, we will definitely defeat the little devils." ”

"Okay, what Commander Lei said is too good, as long as the Chinese army and people share the same hatred for the enemy, they will definitely be able to defeat the little devil, my grandson firmly believes it."

Zhang Guanghua This is the first time he has heard someone say in front of him, 'You can defeat the little devil in five years at most', he doesn't know whether Lei Jian is open-mouthed, or to encourage the anti-Japanese fighters in the tunnel with this firm belief, no matter what, listening to Lei Jian's words, her heart seems to be more full of confidence.

Everyone was deeply encouraged by Lei Jian's words in such a very positive tone, and they suddenly felt that they had strength all over their bodies, and that kind of feeling that made people's blood run high, as if they were restless with blood, this kind of restlessness was determination, courage, and never-say-die pride in killing the enemy.
